Qatar continues funding Palestinian terror and anti-Israel groups

 A ton of reports have suggested earlier that Qatar has been funding anti-Israel groups and encouraging Palestinian terror in the conflicted zone. But despite a lot of regional pressure, Doha is continuing to support such extreme sentiments towards a community.
 
Qatar had always stood against Israel and gone to great lengths to do anything to harm the Jewish state. It was only last month when the Department of the Education revealed that the Arab country had made undisclosed donations to Cornell, Georgetown, Harvard, Yale and several other universities.
 
But what was noticeable difference in these donations was its irregularity. The irregularity was further highlighted by Institute for study of Global Anti-Semitism and Policy, who stepped into the process on motivation from the federal government who also already taken a lot of these irregularities in the donations.
 
The study was conducted to highlight the source of campus anti -Israel activism and analyses the root of the issues that were fueled among the students. ISGAP’s director Charles Small writes that from the $6.6 billion donation only $2 billion was properly reported.
 
Small said that in the duration from 1986 to 2018, the Middle Eastern countries have donated nearly $6.6 billion to the universities in the United States but the federal government reported that the required amount was $3.6 billion. Most of this, $5 billion, was donated by Qatar.
 
It is suspicious that such huge donations from the Middle East, primarily from Qatar are coming to the US. nearly 75% of all the donations are accounted by Qatari foundations. These are the same foundations which were earlier accused of being a mediator between the Qatari royal family and the terror groups.
 
These funds are having direct-indirect impact on the universities students who have development hostility towards Jews, also known as anti-Semitism. ISGAP identified that Qatar along with other gulf states have a strong presence in the universities which have Students for Justice of Palestine(SJP). These students have developed a strong sense of hatred for Israel and also have spread it throughout the student base.
 
Of late things between Israel and Palestinian Authority were improving but due Qatari interference in the region, the smallest of opportunities have been hampered.
 
Doha has always extended its support to the rebel groups in Palestine and continuously funded terror in the region by supporting organizations like Hamas. The country has also supported the dreaded group Muslim Brotherhood to fulfill its ill intentions. The recent one was the murder of French teacher Samuel Paty whose killer allegedly had ties with Muslim Brotherhood.
 
Qatar had always stood strongly against any progress in the middle east towards Israel and one of the examples was when the UAE and the Jew state normalized their diplomatic relations. This not only was condemned by Qatar but he also carried out campaigns against the two countries based on lies and anti-Jew sentiments.
